Hen and Eggs

This is a little ceramic hen I bought today and some candy coated chocolate eggs.Painting this has been a REAL challenge!! I think I am going to have to have another go because I don't feel I have done justice to this subject.Any suggestions would be greatfully recieved.

I am going to send this ceramic hen to a my dear friend Karla Uphoff,who is a very talented artist from http://karlasplace-karla.blogspot.co.uk/  .She will paint it and then offer it to anyone who would like to take up the challenge.
I think it would be fun to see this little hen appear on blogs all around the world and see how far it can travel.

  2. Lovely subject Azra and the composition is really beautiful. The hen seems to be quite difficult because of the shape, but not knowing what the original hen is like it is difficult to judge. Wish you a great painting day. xx

  3. difficult subject matter. I've tried ceramic objects and find them confusing because of all the reflections and tricky light play. Carol Marine is a pro at them. Are those cherry blossoms in the photo at the top of your blog? They are blooming here as well.
